Students create feature-length film Screening to be held in Worsham By Anne Halliwell ahalliwell@kykernel.com
The first feature-length film written, directed and produced by two UK brothers will be screened in Worsham Theater at 8 p.m. Thursday. Zak and Ben Norton, who have pursued filmmaking throughout their time at UK, completed the film, “LOOFO,” despite the lack of an official film department and limited time and budget. Zak Norton, a senior double majoring in kinesthesiology and topical studies: film, TV and digital media, called the film a dark comedy in which the title character undergoes a coming-of-age arc. Ben Norton, a senior studying music, spanish and topical studies: film, TV and digital media, added that it incorporates messages about the contemporary world and the government, as well as the public’s relationship with
technology. “The film does not fit into any genre, and we like that,” Ben Norton said. The brothers have been filming together for six years, Zak Norton said. “When we were in high school, we got into making really goofy films with our friends and it just kind of grew from there,” Ben Norton said. Since then, the pair has worked on many short films and have won WRD and Oswald awards, Ben Norton said. That experience with short films came in handy when imagining how to draw the audience into the story quickly, Zak Norton said. Zak Norton is the main videographer for the UK Theatre Department and is commissioned to film promotional videos for the mainstage productions. He said he used those connections, forged in onstage See FILM on page 2
Hunter S. Thompson among inductees at Hall of Fame luncheon By Will Wright wwright@kykernel.com
The first black reporter for Courier-Journal in The Louisville, Mervin Aubespin, talked about his experiences as a black man in Louisville and the South at the 37th annual Joe Creason Lecture in Worsham Theatre on Tuesday. Aubespin became a reporter for The Courier-Journal after covering the 1968 race riots in western Louisville. After sending his white colleague back to the newsroom for fear that he may be injured, Aubespin spent 48 hours among flipped and burning cop cars, looted stores and the smell of burnt rubber cov-
ering the violence. The chaos that ensued launched Aubespin’s journalism career, which led to the representation of Louisville’s black community in the newspaper. “I needed to be at that newspaper,” Aubespin said. “So they could serve the whole community, not just a segment of the community.” The road that led Aubespin to journalism was not an easy one, though. He spent much of his younger life working as a civil rights advocate in Louisville and Alabama with Martin Luther King Jr. Aubespin went to Montgomery, Ala. with two friends after getting a call from King

Contents of the Lexington Opera House stage were scattered in piles of wood, metal and sawdust across the backstage of Guignol Theatre. The projections screen was rolled up and cast to the side of the Guignol Theatre main stage. Scene designer and associate professor of theatre Tony Hardin wheeled out a large black cabinet filled with props from the previous weekend’s production of
“Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” As the doors popped open, baskets of faux food and knick-knacks spilled out onto the stage. “Many smaller pieces will be reused in some capacity in a later show,” said Hardin, producing an oversized foam corn cob trailing sequins and PVC-and-plastic shackles from the recesses of the closet. The theatre department employs a “green theatre” mentality, Hardin said, which
The people who spend the most time in classrooms after graduation spend much of their college career out of university classrooms. Chelsea Kauffeld, a middle school education senior, has spent her last 16 weeks student-teaching eighthgraders at Morton Middle School.
“I feel like I’m already grown up and have a job,” Kauffeld said. “(But) I can’t be upset about it because I love what I do.” Because she works on campus, Kauffeld said she’s not completely disconnected from UK. All of the credit Kauffeld is earning this semester is outside of college and inside the middle school classroom. Teacher education is
structured so that student teaching is the culminating experience, said Sharon Brennan of Education Curriculum and Instruction. Kauffeld chose middle school education partially because it would allow her to choose two areas in which to teach: science and language arts. Kauffeld’s current placement focuses on language, and she has already undergone an eight-week run last fall, which focused on science. “I kind of thought I wanted to be a teacher,” Kauffeld said. “Science was what I was
good at but language arts was what I loved.” Kauffeld has been matched with Retta Kelley, an eighth-grade language arts teacher at Morton Middle School. “She is an awesome teacher and an even better person to learn from,” Kauffeld said. “She lets me fail and figure things out … she lets me learn, which is the best thing.” Kauffeld and Kelley had worked together during the former’s practicum, and so the See EDUCATION on page 2

Over the summer, the script was revised and readied for production during the school year, keeping a decided lack of budget in mind. Through his connections to the theatre department, Zak Norton was able to keep certain actors in mind for the roles, most of whom agreed to come on board, he said. Notably, visiting faculty member Peter Allen Stone from the department of theatre agreed to play a role after working with Zak
PROPS Continued from page 1 means that many of the props and scene pieces are refigured to work in other shows or are “recycled” for use by architecture or art students. “We do have stock scenery, but so much of the stuff we use is so specific that we really can’t use it again,” Hardin said. “My job as the scene designer is to tell the story. If I get hemmed in with a lot of stock scenery, I’m not really
jects into account, Brennan said, but also looks for places where a student will be challenged and able to handle a variety of teaching situations. Brennan pointed out that first graders and fifth graders will be handled entirely differently, and so UK has to consider the students’ experience carefully. Undergraduate students earn 12 credit hours for allday teaching 5 days per week, Brennan said, but many students will take another course online or after traditional school hours end. Kauffeld is taking an online course this semester and took two night courses in the
fall, but said it was hard to take classes after teaching all day. She called student teaching the most valuable experience she could have, but also compared it to taking a job for which she is not paid. An observer comes to evaluate student-teachers’ progress four times during each 16-week placement, Kauffeld said. “That is always something that is nerve-wracking … you need to remind yourself that … the criticism that I get is so I’ll be a better teacher for the kids,” Kauffeld said. Brennan said students are assessed based on their work in the classroom and observa-
tions made. “(Student teachers) need to interact positively with all types of students and be willing to learn and jump right into the classroom,” Kelley wrote in the email. Despite the downsides of being away from campus, Kauffeld said the children make spending second semester teaching worth it. “Especially the middle schoolers, they’re so dynamic- some days they’re the funniest people I know, sometimes they’re the most honest, which is scary,” Kauffeld said. “The relationships you form with these kids are incredible.”
Norton in the past in a mentoring capacity. “He’s taught me so much about the film world and acting world, especially out of college,” Zak Norton said. Although the script was finalized by early August, the time through October was spent in pre-production mainly executed by Zak, Ben Norton said. This involved contacting actors, finalizing filming locations and obtaining props. Zak Norton added that about 90 percent of the piece was filmed in Lexington, with one scene set in Whitehall Classroom Building. Other free locations were used, such as friends’ and parents’ homes. Filming took most of the school year due to budget constraints and the avail-
ability of the volunteer actors. The brothers edited the footage as the movie progressed in order to finish it soon after shooting wrapped in early April.
Another side effect of the budget deficit forced Ben Norton to compose all
of the music in the film, instead of paying for song rights. Zak Norton kept songs and genres in mind for scenes and sketched out ideas for Ben Norton, who came up with songs to fit similarly, Zak said. “It’s incredible how each song is so different and draws from different styles and genres of music,” Zak Norton said. The film draws from many different ideas, Ben Norton said, some of which are intended to disconcert viewers and make them consider complex issues. “We are given lots of responsibilities in life,” Zak Norton said. “I think it is important for us to be cognizant about… and care about the issues at hand.”
doing the production or the director justice.” Steel lengths used to fortify the set pieces and lengths of wood can be salvaged and reused until they are cut down into an impractical shape, Hardin said. They are then set out on the loading dock for art and architecture classes to pick and choose what they can use. “It’s like a cost-benefit analysis,” Hardin said. “You have to figure out … how you’re going to store it, if you’re going to use it and where you’re going to use it.” This way, Hardin said,
the theater department can “recycle” much of what they can’t directly reuse. Hardin pointed out that even large wooden pieces like staircases and flats used to hold up scenery are taken apart after the show. The 30 feet of stairs, for instance, were large enough as a whole that they had to be split into smaller sections to fit into two trucks along with the rest of the set. “Everything here was onstage at the opera house … things are modular, and that’s how we transported it,” Hardin said. Students from Hardin’s
scene-painting class contributed to the work, but Katherine Fields, a theatre junior with an art studio minor, contributed heavily to the set design. “I probably painted at least 90 percent,” Fields said. Fields began acting in the theatre department, but quickly discovered that she preferred set work, she said. She is now in her third year of set work. Production of the new set began shortly after Guignol Theatre’s production of “Eurydice” wrapped in February, Hardin said.

The Cats committed five errors in the three-game series against the Volunteers and have committed 40 errors on the season. A big positive for UK this season has been the pitching staff, especially sophomore Kelsey Nunley. Nunley has tossed 140 strikeouts and has earned 20 wins this season. Overall, the UK pitching staff has a

The Cardinals average five runs per game and hit .303 as a team. “We’re going to make sure the next couple of days we practice hard on the things we need didn’t do well, we’ll make some adjustments,” Lawson said.

After about 7 weeks of work, the set was moved to the Opera House for a week of rehearsals and a weekend of shows, Hardin said. The stage was bare again by Sunday evening. “I think it gets to students sometimes … You’re going ‘Eh, that’s a lot of work,’” Hardin said. “But a lot of people saw it ... and you’re always working on the next production.” Hardin and Fields work on five productions a year, plus outside work. “It was a long show,” Hardin said. “It’s what we do, though.”

Sterling’s punishment positive step for NBA JOSHUA HUFF
Kernel columnist
Newly minted NBA Commissioner Adam Silver sits in a seat that still has yet to be broken in. Tuesday, Silver began to leave his mark, banning Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling for life, slapping him with a $2.5 million fine for good measure. The message is clear. Silver will not tolerate any act that will tarnish the NBA. And it’s about time. These owners, sitting in their posh suites, flying their Gulfstreams and eating freshly cut scallops laced with glittering diamonds, think they run the show. In a league whose makeup is over 75 percent
black , the last thing an owner needs to do is get caught committing an act of racism; especially an elderly white owner who has a long history of it. Sterling has been a man who has a history of being upfront with his less than savory views. From a lawsuit filed by former NBA great and Clippers general manager Elgin Baylor to the Department of Justice housing-discrimination charges, Sterling is a man set in his ways and those ways are from an era long gone. For someone who has been smart enough to amass a wealth of over $1 billion, Sterling has little to no common sense. We now live in a world where the word privacy has lost all meaning. Everything we do is monitored. From making calls to using the Internet, anything we do is tracked.
So for Sterling to say what he said over the phone is absurd and an embarrassment. Having an opinion is acceptable and understandable. But what is not acceptable is blatantly expressing those views to others. Don’t tell that to Sterling, though, who in his infinite wisdom discussed the notion of not inviting AfricanAmericans to his games anymore to his girlfriend. In baseball, you get three strikes before you’re out. Sterling has had enough strikeouts to encompass a season. Silver has started his tenure with a bang, letting the league and the fans know that this is his NBA and these acts of ridiculousness will not be tolerated. The NBA does not need Sterling, and his banishment evokes only two words: good riddance.

I am one of the luckiest men on the face of the earth.”
If last year’s midseason collapse is any indication, UK baseball should be concerned about its latest stretch of losses. In 2013, UK was 22-6 before heading to LSU for a weekend series against the Tigers. The Cats were riding high, sporting a potent offense that scored nearly seven runs a game and had a capable pitching staff that allowed an average of three runs in their previous nine SEC games. Then disaster struck. UK was swept at LSU and lost 15 of its last 21 games
thanks to a quickly-diminished offense and hittable pitching staff. What was once a promising season turned into a disappointment, resulting in the Cats missing the NCAA Tournament. If this year’s team is not careful, they could face the same result. The 2014 Cats are not as fortunate as last year’s team, having a 19-9 record at the same point in the season. While the offense is still their strength with juniors A.J. Reed, Austin Cousino and Max Kuhn carrying the load, the pitching is the weak link, with young, inexperienced arms residing in the bullpen. But this was still a winning team that was capable of making it back to the NCAA Tournament. That
was until this recent losing stretch hit them. Now they look like anything but a winning team. The situation is all too familiar for the Cats. Their offense has sputtered as of late, not scoring early enough in games to have a chance to win. Top it off with an already mediocre pitching staff that continues to get worse with each passing game, and the end of this season will seem like déjà-vu. UK has lost seven of its last 12 games and is now 27-17 with 10 games to go in the season. If the Cats don’t learn from their past mistakes, then they will face the same result as the 2013 Cats did. Without a tournament appearance, the 2014 season will be considered another disappointment.

Obama’s character goes beyond politics CHEYENE MILLER
Kernel columnist
President Barack Obama is an interesting man to say the least. The 44th U.S. president is adored by liberals, hated by conservatives and brings mixed feelings to moderates. He is the true epitome of a polarizing politician. He has certainly pushed controversial legislation, such as the Affordable Care Act and the 2009 economic stimulus package. Obama has met his fair
share of criticism for his political actions. Conservatives have criticized his handling of the economy, saying we've had an exceptionally slow economic recovery since the Great Recession. They also criticize his take on foreign policy, accusing the president of being weak. Even some liberals have been critical of the president, like Dr. Cornell West, who called the president a “war criminal” for his use of drones. While some of the criticisms of Obama are legitimate, there is one thing about this president we can all admire — his character. Obama has the kind of
noble, respectable personality from which other politicians can learn a thing or two. Obama was giving a speech on immigration reform last November, when an activist heckled, “You have the power to stop deportations.” The president could have let Secret Service toss out the heckler but instead Obama chose the high road and demanded the heckler be allowed to stay. “What I'm proposing is the harder path, which is to use our democratic processes to achieve the same goal that you want to achieve, but it won't be as easy as just shouting it out,” the president said,
assuring that he in fact did not have the power to stop deportations. This is how a leader should handle himself. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie reacted differently to a former Navy Seal and current law student who heckled the Republican governor at a town hall meeting. “After you graduate from law school, you conduct yourself like that in a courtroom, your rear-end going to get thrown in jail, idiot,” Christie told the heckler as he was being escorted out of the building. That is not the only place we can subtly observe the president’s candor, just look at
how he copes with Senators and Representatives. Last year’s Congress, the 113th, was literally the least productive in history and many Americans found themselves wondering how Congress was so useless. Perhaps it was because a good portion of Congress would rather shut down the federal government than allow a law that gives healthcare access to millions of people to take effect, because it came from the Oval Office. Saying that there are members of Congress who purposefully oppose President Obama isn’t without base, by the way. They have even ad-
mitted it. Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell in a 2010 speech at the Heritage Foundation said that it should be “the top political priority to deny President Obama a second term.” Dealing with this sort of opposition would take a person of strong moral center. So if Republicans and Democrats can agree on only one thing, let it be that you can still show respect to the President as a person, even if you dislike him as a president.

Marijuana does not warrant Schedule I classification GREG WELCH Guest columnist
I don't know about you, but I have a hard time believing that heroin and marijuana should be lumped together in the same class of drug. But that is exactly what the DEA does. They list them both as Schedule I drugs, and that is the main reason marijuana is illegal. The DEA website descibes these types of drugs as having “no ac-
cepted medical use” and having “a high potential for abuse.” It also calls them “the most dangerous drugs ... with potentially severe psychological or physical dependence.” And yet according to Patent number 6630507 B1, which was invented by Aidan J. Hampson, Julius Axelrod and Maurizio Grimaldi, "Cannabinoids have been found to have antioxidant properties. This newfound property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated dis-
eases, such as inflammatory and autoimmune diseases." This patent clearly states that despite the DEA claiming marijuana has no medical value, it was pursued for the express purpose of medical advancement and study. I can't be the only one to take immediate notice of the direct hypocrisy here.. I am also probably not the only one to take note of the drugs listed alongside marijuana as a Schedule I drug, specifically heroin. This demands our utmost attention. It calls into question a very unjust situation with the potential of advanc-
ing a medical measure that could offer either remedy, or at the very least relief, for millions who suffer from the various ailments. I call into question the continued classification of marijuana as a Schedule I drug. If its continued classification as Schedule I is based upon "having no medical value," the pursuit of a U.S. Patent exclusively for medical purposes renders the first statement void. I stand behind marijuana advocates and support the cause of its legality. I believe it can offer a healthy alternative to the medicines current-
ly being offered to millions suffering from illnesses, or at the very least offer a non addictive alternative to current pain relief medicines. Additionally, marijuana legalization is proving beneficial to state economies where it is legal. The Huffington Post cites a long list of these benefits, but one of the most notable is the job growth. "7,500-10,000 — the estimated number of marijuana industry jobs that currently exist in Colorado.” In a job hungry economy, that number should definitely grab a person's attention. The possibilities of either
a state – to – state legalized industry coordinated through cooperative measures, or better yet, a federal legal marijuana industry, could lead to a tremendous job boom as well as a major and progressive boost in our economy. It's the change America needs, both for the health of the sick and hurting, and the health of our nation's economy. It's a daring change, and a progressive move toward a better balanced future.
